The National History Challenge is an engaging competition that inspires students who are studying History from across Australia to delve into the past through research and inquiry-based learning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acting as historians, students can investigate their communities, examine their own and their families\u2019 histories, and explore global and Australian historical ideas using creativity to communicate historical analysis. The theme for the 2024 competition was ‘Crisis and Response.’ The panel of judges for this competition include historians from Australian museums and educational bodies such as the Department for Veterans’ Affairs, History Teachers Association and Asia Education Foundation. The following History Elective girls were recognised for their outstanding efforts producing a range of creative historical inquiries including composing a Jazz song about the Great Depression and presentation on the USSR\u2019s use of propaganda. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A huge congratulations to the following History Elective students who achieved a Young Historian Bronze Award.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Student Reflections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The opportunity to take part in the National History Challenge as part of History Elective was a fun and immersive experience. It allowed for us to be creative and helped us to develop our abilities in collaboration, independent research, curating driving questions and assembling a project using historical skills, which is valuable to all aspects of study at school. Our project was on Soviet propaganda, allowing my partner Eve and I to combine our interest in visual arts with Russian history. I would definitely do it again! Thank you so much for this experience Ms Zagora!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
